neoStampa v25.4

April 2025


What’s New

Transparency & Opacity Tool

  • Opacity: Adjusts the strength or visibility of the ink printed from a color or alpha channel to control how solid or faded a part of the image should appear when printed.
  • Transparency: Defines areas where ink should or shouldn’t be printed, often based on an alpha channel or mask to create soft edges, glows, fades, or cutout effects without hard borders.

 


Process Control with Output inkset palette in neoStampa & Calibration Wizard

Process Control is an essential tool for maintaining consistent and accurate color reproduction. It involves printing pure inks at standardized tonal values: 25%, 50%, 75%, and 100% coverage. This addition into the print document allow operators to visually and technically assess ink performance and detect variations in printing output. 

 

  • Monitoring in neoStampa: From the Print Document Information section, select "Output inkset palette". This option will include the color palette in every printed document, providing a visual reference of the inks used.

 

  • Calibration Checks in Calibration Wizard: In every print dialog within the Calibration Wizard, you have the option to include the color palette in the print document. You can choose to align the palette either at the bottom or on the side of each print, depending on your layout preference.
